This thread is a continuation of this one. That one had become too big for its own boots the system to handle.

QS Noooo - we have declared an amnesty. No more shelling mumnetters I beg of you.

LedodgyChristmasjumper · 01/01/2009 17:36

Do you have a jar of mint sauce? I always still a spoonful of that in when I make raita rather than frsh or dried mint.

ClausImWorthIt · 01/01/2009 17:36

But this thread isn't about blogs QS. And all you're doing now is raising an issue about one particular MNetter, which has nothing to with this thread.

What's the purpose of that?

I am just sat here with a drooping ds asleep on my lap like a long dog.

I am gazing into cyberspace very vacuously.

Aside from the ethics of moldies, should we not also discuss the ethics of blogs discussing members behind their backs? Or take issue with members being friends and chatting on msn?

It is amazing that somebody who had (has?) a blog where she discussed (discusses?) mumsnetters behind their backs is so hurt and creates such as fuss over this.

Is it double standards? I dont see why this is anything but the pot calling the kettle black.

ClausImWorthIt · 01/01/2009 17:33

Good point re the multitasking DaddyJ - it is insulting to insinuate that people posting on here aren't aware or involved in other threads, RL and/or global issues!

And it's only one thread FFS! Or would the Moldies (for it is they who seem to object so) prefer it if none us discussed the issue any more? I thought that MN was an open forum where we could post what we like, but obviously not.

I am watching Shrek 2.

Again- Happy New Year everyone

TWINSETinapeartree · 01/01/2009 17:30

I am about to watch yet another Perry Mason while eating chocolate and snuggling up with my very cute dog.

DaddyJ · 01/01/2009 17:30

I invite anyone who feels this thread is vacuous and idiotic
to read this thread instead - a discussion of Social Services and the Care system
that I am sure you will agree is very worthy of our attention.

As a parent you get pretty good at multi-tasking,
and believe it or not some of us are so advanced
we can worry about the people of Gaza, children in care and fellow MNers
at the same time. While feeding a wriggly toddler.

I have had a look at the newspaper articles now
and thought the tone was just a tad patronising
with a hint of misogyny for good measure.

Funny that, as a very similar thing happened some time ago on a prominent forum
mostly frequented by men who talk finance.
The bitching between the two forums persists to this day.
Men, eh?

TWINSETinapeartree · 01/01/2009 17:29

comes with sky and freeview and cable

expatinscotland · 01/01/2009 17:29

it's more exciting than this thread, Quattro .

it's on Sky basic package or TopUp TV/Freeview.

Quattrocento · 01/01/2009 17:26

Nice attempt to change the subject Expat. What is the Bravo channel? Does that come with Sky?

Jodee · 01/01/2009 17:25

I've been living in a snowcave for the past week and was shocked, when this morning I simply googled "wii fit mumsnet", to see a Femail article about all of this!

frankly I'm not surprised another group has been set up; I've been posting on here since 2001 and there's been a lot of changes, and hey, I've not received an invite either!

Winehouse · 01/01/2009 17:24

TWINSETinapeartree I think that sentence refers to Rhubarb and Custardo specifically, not everyone on Mumsnet.

I'm a bit scared of all this.

Flihgtattendant · 01/01/2009 17:23

Thanks Mercy. I must say it is easier to spell you now

TWINSETinapeartree · 01/01/2009 17:22

connie I like to think everything is about me that is how up my own arse I am!

Mercy · 01/01/2009 17:22

Connie, I don't understand why you asked Freckle that

(FA, the comment has been removed afaik, unless it's got back again??)

expatinscotland · 01/01/2009 17:22

the Bravo channel is running a Dog, the Bounty Hunter marathon.

it's pretty funny. whoa, this dude he's got in the car right now is way hopped up on something! his eyes are looking all strung out.

conniedescending · 01/01/2009 17:21

twinset - the quote is about rhubarb and custardo not all of MN or you......

Flihgtattendant · 01/01/2009 17:21

Oh it's gone, thank goodness. shall we keep it to this thread, ladies?

Flihgtattendant · 01/01/2009 17:19

Oh this just gets worse and worse.

For heavens sake will people stop acting like children? Someone sort out wikipedia, please? I don't know how.

TWINSETinapeartree · 01/01/2009 17:19

Jools just because people are posting on here it does not mean they are not posting on other threads or talking about those issues in real life.
